Seeing how the postings are sluggish-
Just a friendly reminder that if you are looking to ACTUALLY sell items (not just re-list them over and over), you best get on over to Bargain and Haggle! My sales just keep growing and growing. I myself have sold 20 items this week (and I hear people get excited about 2 or 3 items with bids). These are actual sales. I am finding that I turn product much faster because I don't need to wait for the auction to end.

I like BargainandHaggle.com too. Have posted a few items and have had a few sales already. Like their site architecture and the "haggling" concept which is unique among the popular online auction venues. However, noticed my sales have slowed as we neared the holiday weekend. One other thing I noticed is you can't seem to post links in your auction listings and many HTML commands are not recognized. Still it's a very easy to use listing interface and you actually get sales.
Any idea why BargainandHaggle.com has fairly good sell-through (the only thing that matters in the end) although I don't see them advertising at all? Bidville and ePier have many times more listings but you can't sell to save your life on those sites.
If BargainandHaggle.com continues to show success in their niche I could see eBay acquire them or try to replicate their concept. eBay did the same when they noticed the success Half.com was having with their niche market. Now that purchase has begun to revolutionize the entire eBay site.
